Hi all once again,

i've tested current 3.7.0-rc2-00145-g4864ccb and it works fine (boots and works
with builtin core-i7 intel video) but i have one more question - what is the reason
of loading nouveau driver for laptops with nvidia optimus and enabling vga switcheroo
which doesn't work in such (optimus) cases. or maybe i've missed something
and switchereoo works with optimus?

BR,
Paweł.
